From vegan ingredients to recyclable packaging, our favourite affordable beauty brands are always getting innovative and creating cosmetic products with the next generation in mind. This Earth Day, we encourage you to get clean with your beauty routine and check out our seven favourite eco-conscious products, below! —Julia Dumbrell
With six stunning earth tones and fully recyclable packaging, we highly recommend the MINERALIST Sunlit Eyeshadow Palette, available at Sephora ($42). As a part of the Clean at Sephora line, the gorgeous greens and browns of MINERALIST’s palette are entirely cruelty-free and vegan.
Every time you lather up, know you’re doing something good with the Body Shop. Simplicity is the key to their Hemp Cleansing Face & Body Slab, with 95% ingredients of natural origin 100% recyclable packaging ($12). Enriched with hemp seed oil, their newest skincare slab is a creamy and gentle product which will leave your skin feeling cleansed, soft and refreshed.
To align with the launch of Kiehl’s Newest Circularity Focused Initiative Mission Renewal – a trailblazing initiative to replenish resources, design out waste and empower communities – they’ve launched an all new eco-friendly Rare Earth Deep Pore-Minimizing & Polishing Powder ($46). Packaged in 100% post-consumer recycled materials, the purifying clay powder cleanser detoxifies skin, helps minimise pores and smooths the skin for a polished and purified looking complexion.
Embrace the cottagecore aesthetic and sink into the pastel green waters of the Earth Day inspired Lakes Bath Bomb from Lush Cosmetics ($9). Made in Canada, this soothing bath product is proudly packaging free and vegan.
Improve our earth and the clarity of your complexion with the miracle working Saje Natural Wellness Konjac Kare Sponge ($12). Infused with bamboo charcoal to reduce oil and deeply cleaning pores, this vegetable fibre sponge is fully compostable and biodegradable.
Native Deodorants are committed to using naturally derived and vegan ingredients, keeping you fresh with coconut oil and shea butter. For Earth Day, we particularly love the natural scent of their Eucalyptus and Mint Deodorant, which applies smoothly with no residue and promises to keep you fresh all day long ($13).
With ingredients we can trust, Aveda’s best-selling Rosemary Mint Purifying Shampoo is a must try this Earth Day ($28). Aveda creates high performance hair care products which show commitment to environmental responsibility through 100% vegan ingredients.
